Book Review: This is Ragtime
Summary: 5 Stars
This is Ragtime by Terry Waldo is an extremely well researched book on the history of ragtime and early blues. As a protege' of Eubie Blake, Mr. Waldo provides an inside view into this genre from the turn of the century through the 1970s. Engaging and witty, this history lesson takes the reader on a journey from ragtimes roots, through the baudy houses in which the music was once associated, to its acceptance in popular culture. Mr. Waldo is a very talented performer and songwriter in his own right. His anecdotes and interviews with fellow blues and ragtime performers make this book a highly entertaining and educational read.
